Blurb
In this short book about the philosophy of the poet Fernando Pessoa (1888-1935), Jonardon Ganeri highlights connections with earlier philosophical poets, from Keats to Shakespeare and from Coleridge to Whitman. Ganeri emphasises Pessoa's originality, and his radical break from Christian and Islamic thinking about human flourishing. A key feature of this book is that it highlights affinities with ideas from works of philosophical fiction in classical India, and it examines Pessoa's own engagement with Indian poetry and philosophy.
